I totally thought moringa was just a gimmick at first, cool to see that the claims were not just good marketing at work. I can attest, the leaves taste really really good, but I had no idea about cooking the flowers or eating the seeds. Protein, fat, vitamins, minerals, starch, terpenes, polyphenols, and fiber. Hell, you could probably even make tea from the bark!

HE is a She
Thanks man,this one has been through a lot,including that gas leak back in KY,but it's a survivor!
It was a only a few inches tall when I got here nearly two months ago,and now it's past my waist tall!
No suckers as of yet,and I'll probably do some topping and a repot some time today.

Thanks ferrel! Got my seeds today! Just started them, hope I can keep this round going into adulthood this time!

Not me. I don't even know what happened to last year's harvest of seeds. My tree is still growing.

The big one I grew and kept in my greenhouse all winter still seems to be alive so I'm hoping to set it out again next season

Um,are those seeds I pictured the ones you're missing? I remember you said you just got a good harvest of seed,right before you sent me these last August. I was going to grow them all out in Florida,but we all know that didn't happen,so I'm starting them all here.

Wow! Does anyone have experience with growing it in a large pot outside in the summer and then cutting it back and overwintering during the cold months, for us northerners? I'm from New York and want in on the fun!
